Sierra Leone Smallholder Commercialization and Agribusiness Development Project (IDA Cr. 57670, IDA Gr. D6680) Implementation Support Mission (May 27- June 7, 2024) Aide Memoire I. INTRODUCTION 1. As agreed with the Government, a World Bank (WB) team conducted an Implementation Support Mission (ISM) for the Smallholder Commercialization and Agribusiness Development Project (SCADeP), Sierra Leone from May 27-June 7, 2024. The main objectives of the mission were to: (i) assess implementation progress across all project components, including a deep dive into the construction of rural bridges across manual/cable ferry crossing points; (ii) review the project procurement, financial management, and environmental and social safeguards; (iii) agree with Government on the required actions and activities that would ensure successful completion and closure; assess action plan for sustainability of project investments and related challenges, risks, and overall exit strategy for the project; and (iv) discuss progress on the endline impact assessment survey, and status of the borrower’s Project’s Completion Report (PCR). 2. The mission was undertaken in partnership with the Ministry of Finance (MOF), Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security (MAFS), and staff of the Project Implementation Unit. The Mission visited all the 4 Rural Bridges at Manual Cable Ferries Crossing Points sites in Karene, Bonthe, Kenema and Kailahun Districts and held discussions with supervising consultants, main contractors, and representatives of project beneficiaries. The WB expresses its appreciation for the assistance provided by all those met (Annex 4). Findings presented in this Aide Memoire were discussed at the wrap-up meeting chaired by Mr Mathew Dingie, Finance Secretary (MoF) on Friday, June 07, 2024.

IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS, KEY FINDINGS, AND AGREEMENTS 3. Summary: Overall, the team assessed progress towards achievement of project development objective (PDO) as Satisfactory. The Mission notes that the project has surpassed targets for all PDO level indicators. Specifically, the adoption of improved inputs and technologies has resulted in an average rice yield of 2.76mt/ha against a target of 2.4mt/ha, maize yield is reported at 2.71mt/ha against a target of 2.2mt/ha, live weight of broilers (feed efficiency) is 2.5kg against a target of 1.6kg and Hen-Day Egg Production (HDEP) is 80% as against a target of 75%. The project has also achieved a 91% increase in marketed volumes of rice, 96% for maize, 98% for cocoa, 90% for oil palm, 98% for poultry and 97% for eggs. The number of beneficiaries under the project also reached 143,556 against a target of 120,000, of which 61,954 (43.2%) are women, exceeding the project target of 40%. In addition, the project has continued to support the existing 17 agribusinesses operating out-grower schemes with 61,912 smallholder farmers, 42 Producer Organizations (POs) and 47 SMEs under the Agribusinesses Services Matching Grant (ASMG). The mission recommended that all levels of the Government of Sierra Leone are fully briefed that even though the project closing that has been extended to June 2025, there is need for close monitoring of the ongoing construction of rural bridges’ completion milestones including the timely release of government counterpart funds of $3.1 million to enable full payment of contractors’ bills as they fall due. To ensure full completion of all the outstanding works on the bridges within the revised closing date, the team together with the government authorities have agreed on revised timelines of all pending activities and developed an updated implementation action plan, that will ensure completion of all works by February 28, 2025. 4. Project implementation and management continues to be satisfactory. The mission notes that most of the agreed actions during the November 15-24, 2023, mission have been fully addressed. However, the mission is concerned at the delay in finalizing the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment of the rural bridges. Annex 1 presents the details of the status of implementation of the agreed actions from the previous mission. Implementation Progress by Component Component A: Support to agribusiness-farmer linkages and small and medium-scale enterprise (SMEs) along agricultural value chains – The performance of this Component is rated satisfactory. 5. Under the Sierra Leone Agribusiness Development Fund (SLADF), the mission notes that the project continued to support grantees to strengthen their capacities to get them investment ready and to be able to sustain the gains made under the project. Under the Agribusiness services Matching grant (ASMG), the project continues to build on the scheme's success through strengthening the capacities of project beneficiaries. Sixty (60) Producers Organizations and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMES) were supported with TA (Technical Assistance) to prepare investment-friendly business plans. The e- Extension system established by the project continues to provide extension messages to farmers. The mission recommends that the project should develop a plan to popularize the e-extension system amongst wider smallholder farmers to increase coverage and usage of the system. 6. As part of its exit strategy, the project is undertaking a study to identify options for agribusiness financing and develop a road map for the transformation of SLADF to a sustainable National Entity for agricultural financing opportunities in Sierra Lerone. The study, which was launched in September 2023 and concluded in April 2024 recommended that, the establishment of an Agricultural Development Fund in Sierra Leone through an Act of Parliament presents an opportunity to transform the agricultural sector by enhancing smallholder farmer resilience, agricultural productivity, value chain development, climate change adaptation and mitigation, as well as promoting inclusive growth and improvement of livelihoods for rural communities. 2 7. In the same vein, the project supported the development of policies aimed at addressing the needs and challenges of smallholder farmers, agribusinesses, SMEs, and other key actors along selected value chains supported under the project. These policies include: i) The National Agribusiness Policy and Strategy; ii) The review of the cocoa policy; iii) The development of a poultry policy; and iv) The establishment of a national database for poultry and poultry products. The mission recommended that all the studies should be completed by September 30, 2024 to provide input into the Implementation completion report. 8. Component B: Market Access Improvement – The performance of this component is rated as Satisfactory. On the construction of feeder roads and small bridges, the mission notes that the project has completed the rehabilitation and maintenance of 310km of feeder roads and 469 structures (bridges and culverts) over and above the target of 300km roads and 410 structures planned. The structures include 10 small new bridges, repair, and maintenance of 4 small, and construction of 455 new culverts (pipe and box). The mission recommends that the project should consult with local councils, Road Maintenance Fund Administration (RMFA) and Sierra-Leone Road Agency to ensure that routine maintenance plan is developed as a critical sustainability measure. There should also be deliberate steps to promote community ownership of maintenance programmes. 9. Construction of Rural Bridges – The mission visited all the four bridges under construction (Lot 1: Tompare, Lot 2: Mattru Jong; Lot 3: Gendema; and Lot 4: Manowa. The engineering supervising firm informed the team that physical progress for Lot 1 is 35%, Lot 2 is 49%, Lot 3 is 45%, and Lot 4 is 58%. The criteria for assessing the physical progress include works campsite establishment, design & technical drawings, construction of cofferdam, abutments, & piers, precast slabs, bridge superstructure, and approach roads. The mission received assurances from both the supervising engineering firm and the SLRA that all the four bridges will be completed by February 28, 2025, well before the revised project closing date of June 2025. While the progress of the construction will be slow down during the rainy season (July to October), the team will continue tasks that are less affected by the heavy rain. For example, at Lot 3 (Gendema)’s camp site, they have a facility to make cement and concrete. During the rainy season, the team will complete making bridge deck slab. By October, they expect to complete all 47 slabs. In case of Lot 2 (Mattru Jong), they had the fastest progress among all bridges, and they expect to complete construction by December 2024. The Bank advised on proactively identifying potential delays and preparing reports on contractor performance, including their resource provision (works, materials, equipment, staff) on site, to closely monitor progress and prevent schedule slippage. Moreover, the mission advised preparing a detailed payment plan, clearly specifying the timing for the required funds: $4 million from CAMIP and $3.1 million from counterpart funds to ensure timely payments to the contractor. Summary of Physical progress and Payment on Bridges Lot Name Lot 1 Lot 2 Lot 3 Lot 4 (Manowa) (Tomparie) (Mattru Jong) (Gendema) Contract amount (USD) 7,458,318. 9,806,905.97 8,407,589.69 7,450,608.54 Physical progress (%) 35% 49% 45% 58% Amount Paid to date 3,231,201.2 3,890,602.66 2,735,832.07 3,647,072.89 % paid to date 43% 40% 33% 49% 10. Government Counterpart funding. The mission reiterates the critical importance of timely release of counterpart fund for the bridges as payments to contractors are falling due. The mission noted that the exchange rate loss suffered by the project due to appreciation of the US dollar against 3 the SDR would have impact on the project's ability to access all the funds under the Bank. Furthermore, a potential price adjustment when triggered would increase the costs of the bridges. 11. Spot Improvements - Spot improvement works have been completed for Bombali, Tonkolili, Kono and Kailahun districts. The project signed an addendum to the Kambia spot improvement works contract for the construction of multiple-cell culverts in three spots along the road leading to the bridge being constructed by the project which were not included in the original scope of works. The spot improvement works in Kambia, Port Loko, Bo and Lot 1 of Moyamba are all above eighty percent (80%) completion, while Lot 2 of Moyamba is below fifty percent. The mission noted that the project should agree with the contractors revised work plans that will ensure that these works are completed by the agreed deadline of December 31, 2024. It is also critical to ensure the sustainability of the improved roads by including them in the Government Road maintenance program and by using labour-based routine maintenance within the agriculture communities living along the roads. 12. Support to ICT and market information systems: The Project continues to maintain the Agriculture Marketing Information System (AMIS), the GIS database, MAF Website and network system. The mission notes that AMIS developed by the project has enormous potential to provide valuable agricultural marketing data that can facilitate trade to the benefit of smallholder farmers but is presently at suboptimal level of deployment. The mission therefore recommends that Policy Evaluation, Monitoring and Statistics Division (PEMSD) /MAFS should re-activate the system to make it functional and mainstream the running of the platform into the budget of the Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security for sustainability. Component C: Capacity Building support for state and non-state institutions and producer organizations: This component is rated satisfactory. 13. The Bank requested the client to increase the pace of implementing capacity development activities provided to implementing partners through technical engagements and joint monitoring of activities. Since the project would not have funds to continue to support the various implementer partners after June 30, 2024, the mission recommends that the plan to build on the achievements of this critical component should be part of the sustainability plan to be developed by the project. Component D: Project Management, Monitoring Evaluation and Policy Regulations 14. Project Coordination and Monitoring and Evaluation: The performance of this component is rated satisfactory. As the project focuses on wrapping up implementation, the communication component was reconfigured to focus on harnessing impact stories for wider dissemination. To further build on this renewed push, the mission recommends that special emphasis should be placed on transitioning project data, knowledge resources, etc. to the institutions and structures of government for sustainability. During the meeting with the PIU M&E specialist, Agriculture Director of PEMSD, MAFS, and potential consultants, we discussed various aspects of evaluation, including sampling, methodology, data collection tools, sustainability, and end users. The mission recommends that the contract for both assignments should be prepared in a manner that will ensure the consultants for both studies would be comprehensive enough to account for all activities of the project up to the closure date of June 30, 2025. 15. Financial Management (FM): The overall rating of the project’s Financial Management (“FM�?) performance has been retained as Moderately Satisfactory and the FM risk remains as Substantial. The original IDA Credit (IDA 57670) of US$40m has been fully disbursed. The Grant proceeds under the Additional Financing (IDA 6880) of US$30 million is now US$23.58m (84.55%) disbursed. Additionally, the DFID TF Grant has been fully utilized with disbursement of US$1.8 million (99.99%). 4 Given the proposal to extend the closure date of the project to 30 June 2025, the risk of ineligible expenditure arising from incomplete works of the rural bridges is reduced. Furthermore, the estimated financing gap to complete the same bridges, estimated at $7.1m, is to be financed by the new CAMIP project ($4m) and GoSL ($3.1m). The government’s commitment to finance the shortfall is described in the Minutes of Negotiations for the CAMIP project. The main recommendation arising from the mission is to manage expenditure commitments and the cash liquidity of the project very closely to ensure a new financing gap does not arise. The following actions were agreed to a) the project prepares an expenditure forecast that shows the expected remaining costs of the project through to the expected project closure in June 2025, and how these will be financed, b) revise the AWP 2024 to include the second half of 2024 and have this revision approved by the PSC with World Bank no-objection, c) make further efforts to obtain the requested supporting documents for the advances of $141,000 to Sierra Akker and provide to the FM team at the World Bank, d) refund the Designated Account for payments made under the canceled Moyamba contract that were in excess of works completed, e) submit the Internal Audit report for 2023 to the FM team of the World Bank together with a related Remedial Action Plan covering status of issues previously report by internal or external audit, and the new issues arising in the 2023 external audit included in the auditor’s management letter, f) document expenditures for advances made to the Designated Accounts, and g) submit the audited annual financial statements to the World Bank by 30 June 2024. 16. Procurement: The overall procurement performance is rated Satisfactory, and the procurement risk is moderate. The project does not have major procurement activities as it is about to close but has much in contract management which is reported in the technical sections of this Aide Memoire. The mission recommended to the government to prepare a detailed plan (works, materials, equipment, staff) for each bridge to allow for close monitoring of the progress of works to ensure completion by the project extended closing date of June 30, 2025. The Bank advised paying close attention to contract management to identify potential issues early and implement mitigation measures promptly. 17. Environmental and Social Safeguards. The project's overall Environmental and Social (E&S) risks are rated Moderate. The E&S performance is downgraded from Moderately Satisfactory to Moderately Unsatisfactory. To improve on this rating, the Project shall finalize the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) by September 30, 2024, conduct an Environmental and Social Audit to assess the impact of the works and ascertain compliance with national environmental/social laws and regulations as well as applicable World Bank Environmental and Social Operational Policies safeguard requirements. During the mission and site visits, the Bank environmental and social team learned that construction of the four bridges had commenced. The mission noted that the project has made significant progress in civil works at the four bridge sites without an approved ESIA (Environmental and Social Impact Assessment. This action is in violation of the provisions of Schedule 2 (F) 2(a) &(b) of the Financing Agreement which provides that “If any Supplemental Social and Environmental Safeguards Instrument is required under any of the Safeguards Instruments, the Recipient shall prepare: (i) such Supplemental Social and Environmental Safeguards Instrument in accordance with the applicable Safeguards Instrument; (ii) furnish such Supplemental Social and Environmental Safeguards Instrument to the Association for review and approval; and (iii) thereafter adopt such Supplemental Social and Environmental Safeguards Instrument prior to implementation of the activities�?. To address this non-compliance, the mission informed the project team that if the ESIA is not finalized by September 30, 2024, the Bank will deploy other remedy measures, including suspension of works and disbursements to the project. 18. Other implementation issues identified during the mission include; (i) observed downstream water pollution and impact on hydrology, and aquatic ecology from poorly constructed coffer dam at lot-1, 5 (ii) the need to provide community hand dug well in Lot 3, and (iii) improved GRM signpost in Lot-1 and GBV/SEA signposts in all Lots. The Project has Contractor’s ESMP currently being used at the four bridges, and these were shared with the Bank team during the mission. Preparation of the contractor ESMP is guided by the project ESMP, a section of the ESIA which has not been approved. Accordingly, the mission recommended that the project should conduct an Environmental and Social Audit to assess the impact of the works and ascertain compliance with national environmental/social laws and regulations as well as applicable World Bank Environmental and Social Operational Policies safeguard requirements by November 15, 2024. The Bank team will review the ESMPs for adequacy and the implementation of ESMPs will be included in the Environmental and Social Audit. The Project team shall immediately institute hydrology and water quality monitoring regime at the bridge construction sites. The monitoring parameters will include aquatic and fish life, sediments behavior and river navigation. The PIU through its contractors shall conduct water quality test and provide alternative water source in Lot-1 and drill a replacement water well in Lot 3. The E&S performance is downgraded from Moderately Satisfactory to Moderately Unsatisfactory. Component E. Contingency Emergency Response. 19. The CERC activities were successfully completed, and a project completion and evaluation report prepared. The evaluation report confirmed that the project beneficiaries agreed that inputs, resources, and services provided have helped to increase overall rice production in the country. III. NEXT STEPS AND AGREED ACTIONS 19. The next implementation support mission will take place in November 2024. Agreed actions are summarized in Annex 2. IV. DISCLOSURE OF THE AIDE MEMOIRE 20. The Bank and the Government of Sierra-Leone (Ministry of Finance) confirm their understanding and agreement to publicly disclose this Aide Memoire. Disclosure of this Aide Memoire was discussed and agreed to by the SCADeP staff and the Ministry of Finance at the wrap-up meeting on Friday, June 07, 2024, in Freetown, Sierra-Leone. 6 Annex 1 STATUS OF IMPLEMENTATION OF AGREED ACTIONS FROM LAST ISM, November 15-24, 2023 No. Description Responsible Deadline Status Agency Component A 1 Completion of assessment study of SLADF PCU March 15, Completed 2023, Component B 2 Development of a plan that will show targets Supervising December 15, Completed leading up to milestones for construction of Consulting 2023, rural bridges Firm 3 Ensure Project Manager is available and has Supervising December 15, Deployed access to the resources required for Consulting 2023, deployment on site Firm/PCU 4 Development of Options for the financing of PCU/SLRA/Su December 15, Completed the rural bridges for the consideration of the pervising 2023, Bank Consulting Firm 5 Preparation of a disbursement plan for its MoF/MAF December 15, Completed counterpart contribution to the bridges 2023, 6 Submission of request for additional works PCU/SLRA November 30, Completed along the Kambia Spot Improvement Road 2023, Component D 7 Prepare expenditure forecast and PCU December 15, Completed Disbursement Plan showing full utilization of 2023, funds up to project closure 8 Government to provide a commitment letter PCU/MoF December 31, Completed to IDA for the expected and potential shortfall 2023, in financing related to the four rural bridges 9 Recruit consultant to prepare project PCU/MAF February 15, In progress completion report 2024, 10 Recruit consultant to undertake end project PCU February 15, In progress evaluation study 2024, 11 Finalize and submit the 2024 AWP&B PCU November 30, Completed 2023, 12 Provide the extended contract for Sierra Akker PCU December 15, Completed and remaining supporting documentation to 2024, IDA 13 Provide list of payments to Project Affected PCU December 15, Completed Persons to IDA 2023, 14 Obtain and refund to the project’s Designated PCU/MoA March 31, In progress Account- B the amount advanced of SLL 2024, 593,367.78 for works not completed under the original Moyamba roads contract 15 Complete internal audit work for 2023 Internal March 31, Completed Auditor 2024, 16 Prepare a sustainability plan covering all PCU January 30, In progress components of the project 2024, 7 Annex 2 Agreed Action Plan for May 27- June 7, 2024, ISM No. Description Responsible Deadline Agency Component A 1 Finalize the sustainability plan being developed for PCU October 30, 2024, agribusinesses, POs, and SMEs. 2 Prepare a comprehensive report and sustainability PCU July 31, 2024, plan on the status of the E-extension and formally handover all user manuals, system codes, etc. to MAFS Component B 3 Submit detailed revised workplans for all lots PCU/SLRA/Consulti July 31, 2024, according to the revised dates of completion. ng firm 4 Develop work plans for spot improvement to ensure SLRA July 31, 2024, works completion by November 30, 2024, Co Component C 5 Undertake formal project closure activities for IPs.

The observed downstream water pollution in lot one of the bridge works, at Tompari bridge, is a concern. The PIU should ensure that the contractor conducts water quality, hydrology, aquatic life and river transport monitoring throughout the Rainy Season, and the remaining construction period. The client shall prepare a ToR for conducting an independent environmental and social audit of the four bridges construction against the World Bank’s environmental and social operational policy requirements and identify gaps and recommend corrective action plan. Similarly, the client based on convenience shall include the water quality check as part of the ToR or a standalone exercise. GRM/GBV/SEA/SH. The mission also noted that the project GRM is functional, the E&S reporting through the digital platform is effective and a monthly tracker are in place, and staff at PCU and implementing partners have signed the CoC with good understanding of its implementation. No GBV (Gender Based Violence) cases have been recorded, referral pathways are functional in all the four lots, and stakeholders' engagement is effective. However, GRM signposts must be placed in Lot 1, and SGBV signposts must be visible and standardized in all four plots. Water pollution. The mission also observed that there is a negative impact of the construction activities downstream at Lot 1 (Tompari bridge) including river pollution. The mission observed from field visit, some community women washing of clothes in the murky river. This water pollution is presumed to have occurred at all sites during construction of a coffer dam for installation of sub- structures and bridge columns. It could also happen during demolition of the coffer dam, planned for mid-June, as sediments could be washed off in the process. The mission requested that the PIU conduct strict supervision of the demolition, and share with the Bank, photographs and/or short clips thereof. To mitigate river pollution and loss of access to river water for domestic purposes, the contractor intimated that there are plans for the construction of shallow water well. In the meantime, communities are reported to be supplied with potable water in some locations. Summary of Complaints Received by the Project.
